It was as simple as this... People that voted at the respective local government areas were waiting for PLASIEC officials to come and collect result sheet of which PDP cleared all the local governments except one only for them to hear that results have been announced... How and why? And please Dia was no riots but burning of houses that belongs to the people that masterminded it.... As I am talking to you now, Lalong has sworn in the chairmen....

Atikulating 2019

Sannisege:
If Atiku likes he should pick all IPOBs as his VP, he will still lose in 2019.

Is that so

Peter Obi....someone who knows how to talk

SternProphet:
Pls what is Atiku's qualification?. It is in Wikipedia. Be courageous enough to copy it and paste it here.

Also I see that the peer are many e-warriors paid for by Atiku on Nairaland. Can you be courageous enough to tell us how Atiku is going to win elections because I am seeing 28 states for Buhari and 6 states for Atiku. An unknown party will win majority in the other remaining states.

Pls instead of doing one line posts, tell us Atiku's academic performance and how he is going to win the elections

and who told you we care? At least him write WAEC unlike someone lifeless

This people just de use that corruption line de deceive us.... Lass lass make him reach Dia and let's observe for ourselves...

You think so!!! But he tried to impose Aisha Alhassan. Mama Taraba on Taraba people, the attempt at trying to paint Atiku clean in Nigeria political atmosphere is so uncalled for..

and now? Since when did you hear of Atiku and Mama Taraba?

What a beautiful piece:

If General Alkali Is Dead, It Is the Government’s Fault – Abiodun Kuforiji-Nkwocha

“Dear Federal Government of Nigeria,

If indeed General Alkali was killed in an attack on commuters in Du community in Plateau State, then it is your fault.

Perhaps when Plateau State imploded for the first time in 2001, no one could have anticipated that happening.

But since then, it is apparent that we have learnt nothing from all the conflicts that have happened in that state.

In the beginning, a lot of efforts were put into reconciliation and mediation. But unfortunately, things would cool off for a while and then there would be an eruption of violence; and then things would quieten down once more.

For a lot of communities, the elders tried for a long time to quell reprisal attacks. Youths were called upon to be peaceful. When a community has been ravaged and members of the community hacked to death, you, our government, would make empty statements and say things like

“…the perpetrators will be brought to book…”

“…we will leave no stone unturned…”

“…we are on top of the situation…”

And then you will go ahead and tell survivors and the general public to

“…remain peaceful and law abiding…”

“…be assured that we are working hard to make sure the lives of Nigerians are secure…”

Then the president will do something superfluous like have a meeting with the IG of Police.

And then what happens next?

NOTHING. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

Another community is attacked and then the same speeches and inaction happens.

At the end of the day, the people of Plateau State were just sitting ducks being spoon fed platitudes over and over again. The expectation was that they would remain peaceful despite being hit over and over again.

Something changed along the line.

The most prominent in my head was the bomb blast that happened on December 24, 2010, at Gada Biu area in Jos. The explosion tore into the community and all of a sudden, there was human flesh and smoke and buildings within the area were destroyed, reduced to rubbles.

The residents had never seen anything like that before. That was the first of many bombings that would happen. There was a Hausa man that was overheard speaking on the phone in the aftermath of the event allegedly.

He said:

“Mun ci nasara a Gada Biu.” (forgive my spelling)

This means “We have recorded a victory at Gada Biu.”

He said this while people were crying in disbelief and trying to ascertain just how many casualties the blast had taken.

What followed after that was horrendous and inhumane.

This man was killed violently and his flesh eaten.

The logic was that the Hausas/Fulanis were not humans but animals and animals are to be eaten.

There were some videos that were circulated of this event.

Indigenes were no long easy to pacify. If their communities were attacked by whoever (either Fulani Herdsmen or by Muslim gangs) they would arm themselves in the aftermath and begin to stop commuters fishing out those of the same ethnicity or religion as their attackers and kill them.

When they do this, the security agencies, previously nowhere to be found (when houses were burnt to the ground and people killed in mass) suddenly remember their work was to secure lives and swoop in. Sometimes, arrests were made and such communities were subjected to raids to mop up weapons.

This brought a lot of mistrust. The lives of the people of Plateau State were literally on abattoir slabs for the taking and the murderers magically disappear into thin air and nothing done about it.

But when the youths in the communities retaliated, something always happened.

This should not be misconstrued as an attempt to justify reprisal killings but to explain things.

My dear Federal Government of Nigeria, because there has never been any sincerity in truly delving to the root causes of the issues in Plateau State, more people are getting killed.

The first crisis should have fished out killers and sponsors. Arrests should have been made and people prosecuted. Restitution should have happened to the communities attacked. Peace is a conjoined twin. Its twin is Justice. They cannot survive on their own.

If you take away Justice there will be no Peace.

Justice will bring about peace.

All the reports and reconciliatory meetings with elders in the communities and placing soldiers everywhere will never bring about peace if there is no justice.

And because justice has been denied over and over again, injustice is spreading, leaving pools of blood everywhere.

For the people who are constantly being attacked in their homes (I hear about 46 villages are empty), they have no faith in the government. They have seen this evil over and over again with no one doing anything to change things. These people know what you, our government, do not want to admit.

THERE IS A WAR IN PLATEAU STATE.

Yes, it is a war with many battles.

Stop pretending that they are skirmishes or clashes or unrest etc

It will not just keep quiet and go away.

And because it is a war, innocent people caught in the middle of it by accident will die.

And my dear government, if indeed General Alkali was killed in a reprisal attack, you killed him.

You really assume that these conflicts will not affect you personally.

It will affect everyone.

People will keep dying needlessly and senselessly.

Have the courage to stop this mess once and for all.

This country is letting out too much blood. It is getting anaemic. We are not fine. Don’t but a band aid and insist we are okay.

There is a war in the middle belt.

The effort you are putting to find the killers of General Alkali is the same energy that you should have put every single time people die in these fights.

If General Alkali was just that little girl with braided her and a deep cutlass cut separating her head into two, would you have looked for her killers too?

The 14 people killed in Rukuba collectively are not as important as General Alkali.

The 19-year-old University of Jos Law student, Shedrach D. Kums, who had his whole life ‘unlived’ in front of him was not as important as Gen Alkali.

The hundreds massacred in Barkin Ladi in June were not as important as General Alkali.

I make this assumption because we have never seen such determination to find the killers of anyone killed in the Plateau State issue as we have seen since you got to Du to resolve the mystery of the missing General.

You have arrested old and young people. You have prevented people from moving freely. You have dredged a whole pond. You have ransacked houses. You are truly leaving no stone unturned.

But this may not have happened in the first place if you had ensured that justice was always served after attacks. Then the people would know that you indeed value their lives and trust you.

But you have made it clear that they do not matter.

Only your General matters.

But guess what?

You will not leave peace in your trails.

You are just setting the stage for more resentment and more battles.

Do something Nigerian Government.

hisexcellency34:
Sincerely, I doubt if Atiku can restructure Nigeria within six months as he promised. By the time, he tastes the presidency and see the enormous power involved, he will be footdragging on restructuring and may not do it until his tenure elapses

use Adamawa state as an example... With all the power that Atiku has in Adamawa, have you ever heard of Atiku imposing a candidate or involving with state politics? The guy just kept his cool in Adamawa like no man business... He was in position of authority and never made use of it...so why now?

I am normally an A student... Don't do B's... Strictly A's....so I am just gonna be Articulating ahead

El-rufai no fit.... Zakzaky people go de wait for am

Deepfreezer:
Yes oooo, in fact the slogan should be make Nigeria great again, We want a selfish president that will put Nigeria first in everything. It's should be Nigeria first from now onwards, we have suffered enough in the hands of Buhari, jeez just 3 years and everybody wan kolo, people are committing suicide anyhow.

If someone can hold Sokoto governorship ticket for Tambuwal, then same for Saraki... Lass lass Na to get more money

Deepfreezer:
GIVE ME AN ATIKU AN EMPLOYER OF 50,000 NIGERIANS
GIVE AN ATIKU WITH ENORMOUS EXPERIENCE ON WEALTH CREATION.

GIVE ME AN ATIKU THAT HAS INVESTED HEAVILY IN EDUCATION AND KNOWS ITS WORTH.
GIVE ME AN ATIKU THAT KNOWS THAT WE ARE ONE IGBO HAUSA AND YORUBA

ChEkWaSIyKe:

Afamed:
